VCBL-K2 125x75x50-Q Vacuum Suction Cup for Homag CNC Machine 10.01.12.00644

Replacing a vacuum suction cup on a Homag CNC table without waiting on the machine builder? This is the VCBL-K2 125x75x50 Q cup, material number 10.01.12.00644: a 125 x 75 mm pad face, 50 mm standing height, crossways arrangement, 0.6 kg net per cup. The vacuum suction pad is listed as the available spare, so the wearing face can be renewed on its own. Match the number on the old pod, send it with your quantity, and the price is quoted for that quantity.

A worn vacuum cup does not fail loudly. The sealing face goes hard, vacuum drops, and the panel creeps a millimetre or two during the cut. Then the second cost arrives: the machine builder quotes weeks for the spare, and the number on the old pod is written three different ways across three different documents. This part is aimed at all three.

It is the VCBL-K2 125x75x50 Q vacuum suction cup for Homag CNC machines, sold under material number 10.01.12.00644. The pad face measures 125 x 75 mm, the body stands 50 mm tall, and the arrangement is listed as crossways. Net weight is 0.6 kg per cup, light enough to lift off the table with one hand.

The vacuum suction pad is the listed available spare for this number, and that is the part that matters most: the pad is the face that wears, while the 125 x 75 mm body rarely needs retiring. New pad on, vacuum back, without scrapping a pod that can still hold a panel flat through a full cycle.

The work is the usual one: nesting, routing, drilling and cutting of wood, plastic and composite panels on a Homag centre. The specification is short and specific — VCBL-K2 125x75x50 Q, 10.01.12.00644, 125 x 75 x 50 mm, crossways, 0.6 kg, origin China — and the price is quoted per order rather than printed.

What the part is, stated as numbers instead of adjectives.

• 125 x 75 mm pad face — the two numbers carried in the model code and repeated in the table, so a caliper check against the old pod settles the question in under a minute.
• 50 mm standing height — the body returns the table to the reference it had before, so pod positions do not need re-teaching after the swap.
• Crossways arrangement — the arrangement stated for 10.01.12.00644, ordered in the orientation the number specifies rather than guessed from a product photo.
• Material number 10.01.12.00644 — the number that sits on a builder parts list, so the order is matched against a number instead of a picture.
• Vacuum suction pad as the spare — listed under available spares for this number, so the wearing face is renewed on its own and the body stays in service.
• 0.6 kg net per cup — light enough for one operator to lift a pod off an open table by hand, with no lifting gear and no second pair of hands.
• Homag CNC fitment — listed for Homag CNC machines, the centres these 125 x 75 mm pods are pulled from when a seal goes hard.
• One pod, one item — no fixture, no hose kit and no control hardware in the box, so what is bought is the cup and nothing else.

The usual answer to a soft cup is to wait on the builder's spare and lose table hours, or to shim the old pod and hope the seal holds until the next service visit. Neither of those costs less than the part itself.

• The seal wears, the body does not. The vacuum suction pad is the listed spare, so a 125 x 75 x 50 mm pod is refreshed instead of scrapped.
• Order by number, not by picture. 10.01.12.00644 and VCBL-K2 125x75x50 Q both go on the request, so a neighbouring size cannot arrive in its place.
• Same height, no re-setup. At 50 mm the pod returns the table to the reference it had, which is a setup step skipped at every position on the grid.
• One footprint across the set. 125 x 75 mm is a single size to stock, so the shelf holds one number instead of three near misses.
• A weight that suits a hand change. At 0.6 kg the swap is a one-person job at the table, done between two panels rather than in a planned stop.
• Quoted in writing first. Price is by request, so size, number and quantity are confirmed on paper before anything is packed.
• The spare is a listed part. Because the pad appears under available spares, the pod is not orphaned the first time the seal gives up.

Homag CNC machines. It is the VCBL-K2 125x75x50 Q vacuum suction cup, material number 10.01.12.00644, listed for Homag CNC machines at 125 x 75 x 50 mm.

Millimetres: length 125 mm, width 75 mm, height 50 mm. The pad face measures 125 x 75 mm and the body stands 50 mm tall, which is exactly what the code VCBL-K2 125x75x50 Q says.

The whole pod. This is the complete vacuum suction cup; the vacuum suction pad is listed separately as the available spare, so the wearing face can be renewed on its own.

It is the arrangement stated for 10.01.12.00644: crossways. Read the arrangement off the old pod before ordering, because the 125 x 75 mm footprint and the arrangement are specified together.

Measure the pod you are replacing. The face should read 125 mm by 75 mm and the height 50 mm; if all three match and the number reads 10.01.12.00644, this is the part.

0.6 kg net. That is light enough for one operator to lift off an open table by hand and set down on the same grid position.

The price is quoted per order, not fixed on the page. Send material number 10.01.12.00644 or the model VCBL-K2 125x75x50 Q with your quantity, and the quote is returned for that quantity.

Yes. The vacuum suction pad is a listed available spare for 10.01.12.00644, and other vacuum cups are quoted from the same request — send the numbers on the old pods and they are priced together.
